To me, Black Series is far, far better executed than the Ghostbusters line and I can't envision you enjoying the quasi realistic quasi animated hybrid look of that line. I completed the core group but they're all stored away in a box.

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate that a lot. I did have qualms about that when I first saw the line.

Yeah, seriously, I had to start my own TF site to get out of that sort of thing, some sites get too big and it infects the group dynamic too severely. It's a friggin' box, if it's important to you then Amazon will help you out, and if it's not important to you then enjoy your toy.

That's too bad too, I used to moderate that forum on the side before it was sold to RS.

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.

Went by a few stores in Moreno Valley today. The Super Target had all the Wreckers except Roadbuster, but they'd marked them up to $16. The other Target had Trailcutter and Orion Pax, and had also, unfortunately, marked them up to $16. Toys R Us had the entire Black Series, which is still boring to me, as well as one Metroplex behind the customer service counter (not sure if it was for someone or not). That mother is huge!

Ugh, stupid WM opened a fake store in Torrance on Hawthorne blvd at 190th but it's a Market only, which the GPS didn't tell me. I ended up driving down 190th to the one just off the 405, a single TBS 3.75" Anakin and 31" Vader were the only noteworthy things.

Target Culver had jacksquat, TF P BH PR Beast Fire Predaking though.

West LA Target yesterday had 1 each of wave 1 of the 6" figures. I bought Maul and Sandtrooper, passed on R2 and Luke. That R2 is defective, his left leg is bent at a heavy angle. The Sandtrooper I bought is defective in the same way my first Maul is, the knee hingepin is shot short so it doesn't contain the outer joint, kinda sick of this line so I think I'm going to cash out.

So, we ever getting together or what?

I'm in for a weekend day. My dad is coming in from Argentina this Saturday and will be here for a couple of weeks. I don't know his schedule yet, but I might have time during that period and definitely afterwards.
